Examining the association of familial and social stress, trauma, and support on mood, anxiety, and behavioral symptoms and diagnoses in youth at risk for bipolar disorder and controls.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionYouth with a family history of bipolar disorder (At-Risk) have a higher risk of developing psychiatric disorders and experiencing environmental stressors than youth without such family history (Control). We studied the differential associations of familial and environmental factors on developing psychiatric diagnoses and symptoms, in At-Risk and Control youth.
methodsAt-Risk and Control youth (N = 466, ages 9-22) were systematically assessed for severity of symptoms, psychiatric diagnoses, and self-reported measures of stress and social support. We tested the association of family history and measures of stress or support with symptom severity and diagnoses.
resultsAt-Risk youth had higher symptom severity scores and were more frequently diagnosed with psychiatric disorders (all p values < 0.001). When predicting mood symptom severity, family history had an interaction effect with stressful life events (p < 0.001) and number of distinct traumatic events (p = 0.001). In multivariate models, At-Risk status predicted anxiety disorders (OR = 2.7, CI 1.3-5.4, p = 0.005) and anxiety severity (Coefficient = 0.4, CI 0.2-0.7, p < 0.001) but not mood or behavioral disorder diagnoses or severity. LIMITATIONS: Measures of stress and social support were based on self-report. Not all participants had passed through the period of risk for developing the outcomes under study and the follow up period was variable. We could not fully study the differential impact of physical or sexual abuse due to low frequency of occurrence in controls.
conclusionAt-Risk youth exhibit more severe mood symptoms compared to Controls when exposed to similar levels of stress or trauma. At-Risk youth are also more prone to develop anxiety which may be a precursor for bipolar disorder.
